Freedom to chain the fire exit closed is freedom too. Do you advocate that freedom for private businesses? I would allow that if the business was ready to accept responsibility for any harm done if someone sets fire to the property. Freedom to make your business less safe is fine as long as you are willing to accept the consequences of your actions.

When a business limits their employees’ and patrons’ ability to defend themselves they must accept the responsibility for that act. In the case of Cinemark they made their theaters less safe by making them gun free zones. The public should know that so they can avoid their theaters.

You may think gun free zones are as safe as places where people are free to carry. That’s your opinion. It is your right to hold that opinion. Cinemark and Bloomberg agree with you. Many of us don’t.

"freedom to restrict guns from my private business is exactly that - freedom"

It is, indeed, -- BUT... "freedom to restrict guns from [your] private business" is also assumption of full liability for providing me and mine the protection of which you deprive me on your premises. If you deprive me of self-protection, then you da*ned well better provide competent armed guards.

Yes, it is your right as a private citizen to make that choice -- and to bear the consequences.
